Entrance to Dale EadsLoveland Hardware - GeneralStore in Loveland.

Rutter became fascinated,kept going back for more, andhad one of the speakers from theJewish Federation of Cincinnatitalk to her students. Everyoneshe met was nicer than the last.She was invited to be part of theeducational exchange tripthrough the Jewish Federation ofCincinnati. “Partnership2Ge-ther” in July. The point was tocreate an international collabo-ration of teachers teaching theHolocaust. Eight Holocaust edu-cators from Israel and Cincinnatimade the trip - three were Chris-tian the others were Jewish.

“In early July, the Israeliteachers came to Cincinnati,”Rutter said.

Then they went to Polandwhere they visited the concen-

tration camps.“We went to Majdanek, which

I had never heard of as an Amer-ican,” Rutter said, “10 timesmore scary than Auschwitz. Itwas horrifying. Majdanek wasreally hard.”

Rutter expected it to be diffi-cult, but felt honored to witnessit. The Holocaust became veryreal to her. The experienceshowed her the victims werepeople, not piles of bodies. Shesaw more than the horrors, shesaw the courage and hope in therescuers she met. Like the storyshe heard of a woman who threwrocks and insults at the men be-ing marched into the camps, butthe rocks were potatoes dis-guised so she could get themfood. A choice many made to docourageous acts.

“My students asked me ques-tions I couldn’t answer when itcame to the Holocaust,” Ruttersaid. “It’s a human story, it’s a hu-

man issue. It is not history. Geno-cide is happening in our world to-day. How do you use the informa-tion for the good?”

Through the exchange pro-gram, Rutter has found a way toanswer the questions her stu-dents ask. It is using the testimo-ny of survivors, telling the facts,and finding openings for discus-sion. Those Holocaust educatorsmade more than an 18-day jour-ney together; they formed realfriendships and the foundation ofcollaboration for the future.

“You give the kids facts andyou let them debate,” Ruttersaid. “It teaches compassion, itteaches empathy. At the end ofthe day, I want to help my stu-dents be good people. This is oneway that is very effective and ex-citing for the kids, and ultimatelyhopeful.”

Joanna Reese per-formed with Acting Upfor the first time as a castmember of “Guys andDolls” in September atMason High School.

Reese may be new tothe Acting Up cast, but thecast was not new to her.Especially her fellowLoveland kids, Cole Han-kins, Brighton Hummerand Dean Parker. She’sbeen to about every showher “Three Musketeers”have performed in Love-land and Mason.

“I call them role mod-els,” Reese said about thethreesome she also refersto as the Three Muske-teers. “They always helppeople. It doesn’t matterwhat role they have, theywill help anyone.”

All three are seniors atLoveland High School.They were joined in thecast by fellow Lovelandstudents Margaret Eilert,Kaylee Michael, RachelIngal and Abbey Hickey.Reese has grown upwatching their shows. Shehas been especially im-pressed with how thethree seniors have shonethe spotlight on others.

“Like one show withCole,” she said, “he wouldmove around on stage,then stop at a random per-son and let the spotlightbe on that person, even ifit was ensemble. It was areally cool experience. Helet other people have thespotlight.”

Hankins will be rightback in the spotlight play-ing the role of Nathan De-troit. This is the beginningof that senior year swansong of shows for him.Like the other Lovelandkids, he went right fromauditions for the LovelandHigh School fall show(”Cinderella”) to his re-hearsal with Acting Up. Itis kind of a strange feelingfor him to be that olderperformer the youngerkids are looking to forguidance.

“It’s weird,” he said.“When I started this, likeas a freshman, you alwayslook up to the seniors. Ididn’t even know it. It’s

like a silent leadership . . .you just do it. You don’t letyourself slack off. It’s im-portant. You are a rolemodel. You do your best. Iwas once that kid.”

As Nathan Detroit, hesaid his voice would prob-ably be the most annoyingthing in the show. JoannaReese was watching andlearning how he works tocreate his character andthat annoying voice. DeanParker played Nicely-Nicely Johnson, a happy-go-lucky character wholoves to eat and gamble.He didn’t know the impacthis performances havehad on Reese.

“I just remember whenI was younger I wouldlook up to people like thattoo,” Parker said. “I neverwould have thought nowI’m the role model here.It’s a confidence booster.It’s nice to know we’re do-ing a good job.”

Reese has knownBrighton Hummer sinceshe first moved to Love-land from Atlanta in 2004.He never really thoughtabout how the years havepassed since a middleschool hobby has evolvedinto his senior year andbeing an example for oth-ers.

“It used to be just ahobby,” Hummer said. “Iforget how old we’re get-ting and that people lookup to us now. It feels likewe’re passing on the torchto the next generation.”

One of those to whomthe torch has been passedis Loveland junior AbbyHickey. In just her secondshow with Acting Up, sheplayed Martha in the mis-sion band for “Guys andDolls” She really enjoysthe scene with straight-laced Sarah - leader of themission band - gets drunkbut bad-boy Sky Master-son ends up helping Sarahstraighten up. Hickeysaid the audience will finda lot of great subtle com-edy.

“Outside of the actualshow, I just really likehanging out with all thecast,” Hickey said. “It’s areally cool atmospherecause everyone is goodfriends. It’s just fun tocome here.”

Branch Hill-GuineaRoad closedbeginning two moreweeks

Branch Hill-GuineaRoad, from Branch Hill-Miamiville to BranchHill-Loveland, is closed inboth directions throughFriday, Dec. 18, weatherpermitting. A detour willbe in place that directstraffic from Branch-Hill

Guinea Road to WardsCorner Road to I-275 toLoveland-Madeira Road.

Crews in this area areworking on replacementof an underground stormpipe, which requires a fullclosure of the road in theproject area. Followingthe closure, the road willreopen in both directionsand then constructionwork will resume in thespring to complete the

project. Clermont County Engi-

neer Pat Manger said thatthe Branch Hill-Guineadrainage improvementsare a significant safetyimprovement and an im-portant component of up-grading the infrastruc-ture in this area.

“This work will pro-vide an updated drainagesystem that will not onlyserve to move water more

efficiently away from theroadway, but will alsoeliminate the sharp dropsand deep ditches along theroadside,” Manger said.“In addition, Branch Hill-Guinea will be widenedbetween Branch Hill-Mi-amiville and Branch Hill-Loveland Road, and pavedshoulders will be installedthat will improve safetyfor all traffic travelingthrough this portion ofBranch Hill-GuineaRoad.”

“We have completedthe work that necessitat-ed a closure on a separatesection of Branch Hill-Guinea Road on sched-ule,” Manger continued.“But during the course ofthat work, a section of theunderground pipe was

seen to be in a conditionthat warranted immedi-ate repair. This upcomingclosure is being promptedby the necessity of fixingthat pipe now, rather thanwaiting until spring asoriginally anticipated.”

Manger added thatthroughout the course ofthis work, the ClermontCounty Engineer’s Officehas maintained closecommunication with theLoveland City School Dis-trict and the school dis-trict will accommodatethe closure through mod-ified bus routing as theyhave done over the courseof previous closures in theproject area. The City ofLoveland has also workedclosely with the Engi-neer’s Office to ensure the

disruption to local trafficis as minimal as possible.Local law enforcementwill continue to assisttraffic during peak hoursthroughout the closureperiod.

The Hamilton CountySheriff’s Office is gearingup to offer its Citizens’Academy in AndersonTownship.

The 12-week course isalso open to SymmesTownship residents. Al-ready, four Symmes resi-dents and eight Anderson

residents have signed up,District Five Cpl DaveBoiman said.

This is the fourth acad-emy. The first was in 2004.The second in 2007 and an-other in 2012. All havebeen offered in AndersonTownship, where Boimanis assigned.

“I’ve always had an in-terest in them and Ithought it was a good op-

portunity to do one,” Boi-man said of the first acad-emy. After the proper ap-provals were received,Boiman worked to createthe curriculum. He’squick to point out that hedidn’t write the program.There are many citizenacademies offered na-tionwide from which ma-terial can be borrowed.

Boiman said he’s a

strong believer in theacademy’s benefits. It’san opportunity for mem-bers of the community tosee how the sheriff’s of-fice operates and gain abetter understanding oflaw enforcement than isoffered on the news,movies or televisionshows.

District Three Com-mander, Lt. Chris Kette-man agreed with Boimanand is pleased that mem-bers of the Symmes Town-ship Board of Trustees aresupportive of participa-tion in the academy.

Academy participantswill gain a better under-standing of what police of-ficers are up against ev-ery day, he said.

“It says a lot when wehave these two entities,Symmes and Andersontownships, partner tomake this happen,” Kette-man said. “It’s great forthe citizens to be able to doit.”

The program has open-ings for a total of 30 par-ticipants. During theacademy they will learnabout the roles and re-sponsibilities of sheriff’sdeputies and the dangersand stresses inherent inthe job of law enforce-ment. Topics covered in-clude the history of theSheriff’s Office, patrol,criminal investigations,community policing andspecialized units.

Assistant City Man-ager/Finance DirectorCorey Schmidt is leavingthe city of Loveland to be-come the city manager ofMarlette, Michigan.

“I have had a great ex-perience working for thecity of Loveland. The op-portunity in Michigan is achange to get closer to myfamily and my wife’s fam-ily,” Schmidt said.

Councilwoman AngieSettell said she workedclosely with Schmidt as amember of the finance

committee. “(Schmidt) has made a

major impact on Love-land’s city administration

with hisability toquicklygrasp is-sues andtake initia-tive tosolvethem. His

organizational and com-munication skills alongwith his congenial cus-tomer service personalityserved the city well,” Set-tell said.

Schmidt started withthe city as a managementfellow in 2012. He servedas a management analystand the assistant to thecity manager. He wasmade the assistant citymanager/finance directorwhen the city combinedthe positions after formerFinance Director TomVanderhorst left the city.

“He started as a man-agement fellow and Ithink even back then thecity knew they had some-thing really special withhim. He just picks upskills so easily and reallystrives with them. It is nota burden for him to havesomething put on him,”City Manager Dave Ken-nedy said.

Schmidt also handledthe duties of the part-timehuman resources directorafter the former one re-tired and did much of theIT work for the city. Ken-nedy said the city is hiringa finance director. Kenne-dy said he will be takingon Schmidt’s other re-sponsibilities.

“For me personally Idon’t know who I wouldhave come in here anddone everything withouthim being here. He was al-ways there with me, help-ing me out. But I have cer-tainly learned more sincethen and we feel it is bet-ter to have it as just asstrictly finance directorposition,” Kennedy said.

Kennedy said he andmost of the city hoped thatSchmidt would stay inLoveland, but knew hewanted to be closer to hisfamily in Michigan.

“The city of Marlette isreally getting a talentedperson. He has a lot ofskills that a communitylike that can really use.He will really make an im-pact. I has been an hon-ored to work with him,”Kennedy said.

Loveland Early ChildhoodCenter

» First-grade students got their mo-tors running at Loveland Early Child-hood Center when COSI (Center of Sci-ence and Industry) brought its newesttraveling program, “The Incredible Hu-man Machine,” to Loveland.

This innovative, interactive programstimulated the imaginations of studentsby comparing the inner working of thehuman body to an engine.

“We were thrilled to be a part of one ofthe newest offerings from COSI, whichis a long-standing student favorite,”LECC Principal Kyle Bush said. “We of-fer a huge thank you to our supportivePTA for sponsoring this incredible pro-gram annually.”

“The Incredible Human Machine” isone of six traveling science demonstra-tions from COSI.

Loveland Elementary School» Loveland Elementary School stu-

dents have entered into a new learningexperience – using Skype to connectwith the Yellowstone National Park Mu-seum to learn first-hand from scientistswho work there about the animals thatlive there and the amazing geology ofthis national treasure.

“The students had been learningabout animal adaptations in science, andthey also read about Yellowstone Nation-al Park and its geology in their text-books,” teacher Laura Johnstone said.

She teamed with fellow teacher Jenni-fer Stroup and innovative instructionalcoach Susan Craig to put together a planto utilize district technology to expand

the lesson...all the way to Cody, Wyoming– home of the museum.

“It was a learning experience for usbecause the rangers added so manymore details to the topics we had beenteaching the students,” Johnstone said.“After the Skype session we were able todiscuss what the students learned fromthe rangers, and we also saw how excitedthe students were to be on a virtual fieldtrip.”

“This – this is what we mean when wetalk about using technology to enhancethe learning that takes place in our class-rooms,” Principal Jennifer Forren said.“This is amazing. It was exciting for boththe students and the teachers – and wesimply couldn’t have done it without thesupport Mrs. Craig provided. It sincere-ly opens up the world of learning for ourstudents.”

“One of our goals of providing univer-sal access to technology tools across theLoveland City School District is to helpredefine the learning experiences thatour students have access to,” LovelandDirector of Technology David Knappsaid. “What Mrs. Johnstone and Mrs.Stroup have created with their Yellow-stone Skype session does just that. Whatan enriching opportunity

Loveland teachers have created forour students to virtually connect withscientists from across the country.”

“We’ve already planned another vir-tual field trip,” Johnstone said. “We aregoing to Skype with a sea turtle hospitalin Florida.”

The Skype session complements les-sons the students are currently engagedwith on sea turtles.

Loveland High School» Loveland High School senior Jona-

than Reese was awarded a 2015 Studentsof Integrity (SOI) Scholarship.

The Better Business Bureau awardsthis annual scholarship to recognize highschool students in BBB’s 20-county ser-vice area who demonstrate superior eth-ical reasoning skills.

Reese was selected for serving asboth the INTERalliance chapter presi-dent at LHS and the director of engineer-ing for the STEMs for Youth Program,and for his work on a mission trip to Hon-duras three years ago – when he volun-

teered his time to dig latrines, mudhouses, and – as it happened – find hiscalling.

“The people there were absolutelyamazing,” said Reese. “They were doinggreat things, and they didn’t have thethings we consider necessities here. Iwondered what would happen if youwent there and brought them some ofthose tools. It’s what inspired me to gointo electrical engineering.”

“Jonathan is able to use his skills tohelp others hone theirs,” said JamieHamilton, LHS guidance counselor. “Heis a really great young man, and we areabundantly proud of all he has accom-plished in our Loveland community andbeyond.”

» The Loveland High School March-ing Band earned a superior rating at theOhio Music Educators Association StateMarching Band Finals Nov. 7 at the Uni-versity of Dayton Welcome Stadium.

This is the second consecutive yearthe marching band has achieved the toprating at this contest.

“I am extremely proud of how far theband progressed this year,” Band Direc-tor Geoffrey Miller said. “We selected amore difficult show with more challeng-ing music and movements and still per-formed at the highest level. The studentshave been working on creating this showsince August, and the staff has been de-signing this show since last November,so everyone was very excited to see howincredible the final product turned out. Icouldn’t be more pleased with the band,and I am excited to start planning nextyear’s journey.”

In order to qualify at the State March-ing Band Finals, the marching band re-ceived a superior rating at a local con-test.

An ounce of prevention is worth a poundof cure. Especially when it comes to leav-ening baked goods during this super busyholiday season.

That’s why I’m reminding you again tocheck your leavening agents. For bakingpowder, stir a teaspoon or so into 1/4 cupwarm water. It should fizz up right away. Ifnot, toss it.

To test leavening power in baking soda,stir a teaspoon or so into 1/4 cup of vinegaror lemon juice. It should also fizz up rightaway.

Stir a packet of yeast in very warm water witha pinch of sugar to feed it. If it’s good, it will bub-ble/foam after a few minutes. I store my yeast inthe freezer for longer shelf life.

Readers want to knowWhat’s that white coating or speckling on my

chocolate?The whitish layer/speckling is what is known as

“chocolate bloom.” There are two types: fat andsugar bloom.

Fat bloom is caused when chocolate is exposed

to high temperatures and then allowed toreset, or is not tempered properly. Thecocoa butter melts and separates, thenrises to the surface creating a whitish“bloom.”

Sugar/speckled bloomChocolate looks speckled rather than

whitish. Caused by an excess of moisturethat makes the sugar crystallize.

Store in cool place to avoid bloom.

Using bloomed chocolateYes, it’s safe. It may not have the “snap” and

silky-smooth texture of tempered chocolate, butthe flavor is still good.

Difference between bitter, bittersweet,semisweet, milk and white chocolate.

1 pound thick cut bacon

Mix:

1/4 cup brown sugar, packedScant 1/2 teaspoon ea. cayenne and black pepper

Preheat oven to 350. Lay bacon in single layer on sprayed sheet.Rub a bit less than half the sugar mixture on top. Bake in mid-

dle of oven about 15-20 minutes. Turn over and sprinkle with rest ofmixture. Bake until crisp, about 15 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Lois Boekley’s Crumb Coffee Cake

Brunch is a popular way to entertain during the holidays.Here’s a recipe from reader Lois Boekley, who treasures her family’sgenerational recipes. Lois said: “I got the recipe from my grand-mother many years ago, and tweaked it to make it my own. I haveshared this cake with many people over the years to welcome newneighbors, for potlucks, and for friends who are under the weath-er.” Lois’ tip on not over mixing the batter results in a more tender,nice textured, cake.

3 -1/3 cups all purpose flour2-1/4 cups sugar1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon1/2 teaspoon nutmegPinch salt18 tablespoons salted butter or margarine1 cup buttermilk1 teaspoon baking soda2 eggs

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease and flour two 9-inch roundor two 8-inch square pans or one 13 X 9-inch pan.

Combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.Using a pastry blender cut in the butter or margarine. (This

can also be done in batches in a food processor.)Remove 2 cups of the mixture and set aside.Stir the baking soda into the buttermilk. Immediately add the

buttermilk mixture and the eggs to the remaining crumb mixture.Mix only until the mixture is evenly moistened; do not over mix.The batter will be lumpy.

Transfer the batter into the prepared pan(s). Sprinkle with thereserved crumb mixture.

Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean,about 25 to 30 minutes for the 8- or 9-inch cakes or 30 to 35 min-utes for the 13 X 9-inch cake. Cool on a wire rack.

Note: This cake is best served warm. Reheat individual por-tions in the microwave oven.

Nov. 25 question

Would you feel safe travel-ing to Europe in light of theParis attacks? What would ittake to make you feel safethere?

“Had this question beenasked even two years ago myanswer would have been a sim-ple ‘sure.’ However, in light ofthe ever-increasing audacity ofradical Islamist groups (yesObama, you should use that la-bel), I would be extremely un-comfortable traveling inEurope with that all too identifi-able dark blue passport. It is ashame that so many innocentshave been killed in such violentmanners. It is a shame that ittakes events with the magni-tude of 9/11 or Paris or London

trains or US embassies or hotelsin Mali to wake more of theworld up to the ever-increasingthreat radical Islamists insist isgood religion. It is a shame thatwe can’t all just learn to getalong with each other. It will bea real shame if we end up nextNovember with another weaksympathizer living at 1600Pennsylvania. Let us hope anpray for real leadership toguide us through and beyondthe terrorism quagmire.”

M.J.F.“I would not feel safe travel-

ing to Europe or for that matterany other foreign country ex-cept Canada. I have felt this waysince 9/11 and these terrorist at-tacks such as Paris reconfirmmy fears. Europe is being overrun with refugees from the Mid-

As a financial profes-sional, I never thought I’dencounter anything thatpeople fear as much astaxes, but alas, I have…FAFSA.

For those of you whohave not yet sent a childoff to college, FAFSAstands for the Free Appli-cation for Federal Stu-dent Aid. The purpose ofFAFSA is to determinethe expected family con-tribution (EFC), which is theamount of money a family willhave to pay for college for thecurrent academic year beforethey can be considered forneed-based financial aid. EFChas four components - parentincome, parent assets, student

income and studentassets.

Historically, afamily would com-plete this form forthe first time in Jan-uary of their stu-dent’s senior year inhigh school, usingtheir prior year fed-eral tax returns toreport parent andstudent income. Thistimeline will hold

true for families of currenthigh school seniors, who willcomplete FAFSA for the firsttime this coming January,using their 2015 tax returns todetermine their financial aideligibility for the 2016-2017academic year, which will be

their freshman year in college.Although guidance counsel-

ors typically start engagingstudents in the preparing-for-college process quite early intheir high school careers (asearly as freshman year), par-ents will often avoid consider-ing how they will pay for ituntil senior year, when FAFSAis looming.

The U.S. Department ofEducation recently announcedsweeping changes to thisschedule, which now makes itimperative for parents of ju-niors and sophomores to startplanning for the paying-for-college process. The firstchange moves the filing fromJanuary back to October,meaning parents of current

high school juniors will filetheir first FAFSA in October2016 (rather than January2017). The second change re-quires families to report in-come from their “prior prior”year tax return, so families ofjuniors will use their 2015 taxreturns (rather than 2016) toreport income, even thoughthey won’t head off to collegeuntil the fall of 2017. Familiesof current sophomores will usetheir 2016 tax returns to com-plete FAFSA in October 2017,for the 2018-2019 academicyear.

These changes are impor-tant for two reasons: 1) theymore closely align the finan-cial aid process with the col-lege application and admission

process, and 2) they affordfamilies an earlier opportunityto plan for how they will payfor college and more impor-tantly, more time to strate-gically minimize their Expect-ed Family Contribution.

Current statistics show that89 percent of families whoapply for financial aid willreceive it, so don’t delay ineducating yourself about theprocess, and how to positionyour family for maximumeligibility.

As a concerned Christian, Iwas saddened by the tragicdeath of unarmed black youth,

TimothyThomas in2001 by a whiteCincinnatipolice officer(who was ac-quitted ofcharges ofnegligenthomicide).

I was alsodisturbed bysubsequentrioting thatcaused $3.5

million in damages to innocentproperty owners, and another$2 million in damages to cityproperty (i.e. the taxpayers asinnocent victims).

I welcomed the Neighbor toNeighbor (N2N) groupsthroughout the city formedwith an eye to peaceful racialreconciliation and attended anumber of the 2001 and 2002Milford N2N meetings. What Iwitnessed at these meetingsquickly caused me to quit:white-bashing by some blacksin attendance and white guiltby some whites. To me, focus-ing the discussions on “whiteprivilege” and “white racism”did not seem healthy or help-ful.

The reader might recall the

Washington, D.C., Beltwaysniper killings in October 2002,where two African Americanmen shot and killed 10 peoplewhile wounding another three.Even though these criminalswere caught in the act, andwere eventually tried and con-victed, some of the attendeesat the final Milford N2N meet-ing I attended expressed out-rage that black men had beencharged, claiming that “onlywhite men commit serial mur-der.”

These N2N members sawthe arrest of Lee Boyd Malvoand John Allen Williams as acase of “racial profiling.”

Many Americans are con-cerned that the Obama Ad-ministration is planning toimport tens of thousands ofSyrian “refugees” into theUnited States despite the Di-rector of the FBI admittingthat it is “impossible” to vetthese people. An estimated 97percent of the “refugees” areMuslim, while only 3 percentare Christian or other faiths. Inthe light of thousands of terror-ist incidents worldwide com-mitted by Muslims since 2001,is it sensible for Americans toprofile incoming Muslimswhen we don’t know who theyare?

President Obama claimsthat to deny Syrian Muslims

entry into the United Stateswould be a “religious test” anda “betrayal of American val-ues.” Interestingly, Beltwaysniper Williams in 1987 joinedthe Nation of Islam andchanged his name to John Al-len Muhammad. Besides kill-ing 10 in the Washington, D.C.,area, Muhammad was respon-sible for the murder of 14 oth-ers.

Some Milford N2N mem-bers are still busy inferringdiscrimination in hiring by theCity of Milford and by theMilford Exempted VillageSchool District.

“We are truly concernedabout all the many racial is-sues,” said Charlene Hinners.What issues, I ask.

Apparently Hinners agreeswith President Obama’s chargelast summer that “racism is inAmerica’s DNA,” and SupremeCourt Justice Anthony Kenne-dy’s claim in the 2015 FairHousing decision that evenneutral, “colorblind” actionscan easily produce unequal,racist results.

Nonsense, unfair to Amer-ica and Americans. I call onthe city and school district tohire the most qualified candi-dates, regardless of race.

If it is true that peopleoften only read the first fewlines of an article, then let me

say it rightup front.There is nomanna fromheaven.There are nosweepstakesyou win overthe phoneand have tosend your lifesavings toget, ever.And, that

kind, sweet convincing voiceon the other end of the phoneline is, no doubt, sitting in ahuge call center in anothercountry, meeting quotas andcelebrating the victory whenyou are Scammed out of ev-ery cent you worked hard tosave for so many years.

You may think this couldnever happen to someone youknow, even a parent, but itoften does and goes unreport-ed to authorities and, espe-cially, to adult children. Iftold, adult children respondwith disbelief, anger anddismay toward the parentwhen they cannot believe thata smart parent could havefallen for such a thing. Frank-ly, there is no degree of intel-lectual or socio-economicboundaries that differentiatethose who are scammed byrelentless con thieves. Fallingprey is easy.

In many cases, hardwork-ing retired Americans havelost upwards of more than$100,000 before realizingthere is no gold at the end ofthe rainbow; that everythingthey have worked for is gone.I am aware of situationswhere an older adult has notonly lost his/her life savings,but ended up in foreclosureon a home that had been paid-off years before.

A common scam is the“You won the lottery” scam,wherein the person answer-ing the phone is told that hejust won $1.3 million (or an-other random amount) andafter much hoopdilah of con-gratulations and celebration,the caller indicates that you

are, however, responsible forthe taxes; but, they will evensend you a check to cover thetaxes. You get the check, cashit at your bank and by thetime it gets to the other coun-try and it returns to yourbank noting “no such ac-count,” you’ve already sent aboatload of cash to them.

One call that recentlycame to my home was fromsomeone purporting to befrom the U.S. Treasury; notunlike the IRS call, insistingthat I return the call and thatit was of dire importance. Idid not. If you return the call,they get your personal in-formation - like birth dateand Social Security number -and, threaten that you owethe government money, and ifyou don’t send it immediately,you will be arrested.

I am always amazed thatthe “grandson/daughter”calling from another countryis used so often. The callerindicates that he/she is yourgrandson/daughter, startingwith “Grandma?” and theresponse is “Trevor, Trevor, isthat you?” Of course, thisperson is now “Trevor” andbefore you know it, you’vewired $20,000 into anothercountry to get him out ofprison, and he has beggedyou not to call his parents.

It is the holidays. Let’s bethankful for all we have, butdiligent in protecting it. So,hang up the phone. Generally,the caller moves on to thenext potential victim andwon’t waste time with you.Occasionally, they can bethreatening and persistent.Do not let them hang up thephone on the other end of theline and laugh to their friendsin the call center that theyscammed another trustingAmerican. Please share thismessage with every personyou know and care about inhelping them to protect theirhard-earned savings.

Loveland swimming is led by juniorCourtney Mennen. She earned honor-able mention All-ECC honors and quali-fied for districts in the 100 yard back-stroke. Senior Emily Michelfelder andsophomore Emma Blackburn will alsolead the Tigers. The experience gainedby underclassmen competing at dis-tricts last year in relays should pay offthis season.

Loveland’s boys team is led by seniorRyan Mesmer and juniors Mitchell Lai-fook and Vaughn Richter. That trio com-prised three fourths of the Tigers’ 200yard and 400 yard freestyle relay teamslast season.

The Tigers have a deep diving squad,with Liz Bender, Sarah Sheeler, JoeCarver, Max Daugherty, Ryan Drapeau,Alex Scharfenberger. Sheeler is theteam’s lone senior and captain. Scharfen-berger narrowly missed qualifying fordistricts last year.

“I have a young team this year that isloaded with talent,” said Loveland divingcoach Lisa Werwinski.

Moeller finished second in the statelast year, behind only Greater CatholicLeague rival St. Xavier.

The Crusaders return all but twomembers of that Division I state runner-up team. Jacob Peloquin placed fifth inthe state in the 100 yard butterfly andseventh in the 100-yard backstroke.

Cooper Hodge finished fifth in the200-yard individual medley. Both areback for their senior season. Senior DanNyberg and juniors Austin Theobald andWill McCullough also return.

Peloquin, a Miami University com-mit, and Hodge, a University of Wiscon-sin commit, will anchor the Crusaders’relay teams. Expectations will be highfor this team in 2015-2016.

Last year, head coach Gary Toner saidhe expected his Cincinnati Hills Chris-tian Academy boys team to make dis-tricts for the first time in eight years.

J.P. Pancioli and Ryan Hunt helpeddeliver on that goal. This year, Toner andthe Eagles are likely looking for repeatappearances at the district meet as wellas adding some fresh faces to the mix, ifnot state qualification.

Hunt and Pancioli can return this sea-son along with a host of other swimmersincluding Jake Koopman, Connor Shee-hy and Dominic Rottman.

The Enquirer tabbed CHCA as one ofthe area’s teams to watch in Division IIagain this season.

Last season, Toner said his freshmenclass was the best he’s ever had.

Anna Van Jura and Sydney Day wereamong those freshmen who could con-tribute immediately. And they did so asdistrict qualifiers.

Hope Whiteside and Rachel Haslemwere in the district mix as well.

Toner is likely hoping a few morefaces join them in district waters thisseason.

St. Xavier High School’s swim teamhas, for a long time, held the state podi-um in a stranglehold. The Bombers havecultivated and sustained one of the mostimpressive programs the area has everseen.

Last season, St. Xavier won its sev-enth consecutive Division I state cham-pionship (36th all-time) and the Bombers

Junior Grant House is without ques-tion the fastest swimmer in state. Househas already won four individual statechampionships (two as a freshman, twoas a sophomore), and he’s helped on anumber of state championship relayteams. Last year, he won the 100 and 200freestyle races at state.

Senior Matt Slabe, also an individualstate qualifier, swam on the 400 freestylerelay team that won a state title last year.Junior Luke Sobolewski’s another expe-rienced swimmer who won a state titleon the 200 medley relay last year. JuniorCharles Leibson was an individual statequalifier in two races last year, and justfinished helping the Bombers win a wa-ter polo state championship. SophomoreJustin Grender was another differencemaker at state last year, as was sopho-more Nicholas Perera.

Beerman has also been very im-pressed by freshman Jake Foster.

Mount Notre Dame is led by GraciDoll, Corinne Herwitz, Amanda Puthoff,Annie Kruspe and Kate Van Den Brink.

The Lady Cougars will field a deeperand more experienced squad in coachPete Wagner’s second season at MND.That depth is bolstered by the addition ofsome swimmers who returned to thesport to compete for the varsity team af-ter taking some time off from competi-tion.

“This team is well-rounded and com-prised of swimmers that are committedto the sport and not afraid to work hard,”said Wagner. Grace Menke earned diverof the year honors in the GGCL last yearas a freshman.

St. Ursula, with its young talent androster laden with state swimmers, is ex-pected to be one of the city’s best againthis season.

However, the Bulldogs aren’t the onlyGGCL team with talented youngsterswho earned state experience. The girlsoff Pfeiffer road might have somethingto say about that.

Ursuline, like its rival, sent numerousswimmers to Canton’s waters.

Julia Moran advanced in the 100 and200 freestyle races. Rollie Grinderjoined her in the 200 and swam the 500freestyle along with Christine Van Kirk.

Caroline Blood represented the Lionsin the 100 backstroke and Laura Morrisswam the 100 breaststroke.

All five can come back this season andhelp Ursuline compete for its third Divi-sion I girls state title in four years.

Loveland Middle Schooltakes cross country title

There are 15 girls, grades 3-5, whoparticipated in the Girls on the Run(GOTR) program at St. Columban.

GOTR inspires girls to be joyful,healthy and confident by using a fun, ex-perienced-based curriculum, which cre-atively integrates running.

The Girls on the Run lessons encour-age positive emotional, social, mentaland physical development.

On Nov. 5, the girls participated in a“Practice 5K” (3.1 miles), many of themrunning this distance for the first time.

The event started outside the cafeteriadoors and the girls ran eight laps aroundthe school and church parking lot follow-ing the freshly painted Bobcat pawprints.

The Practice 5K was meant to be justlike a real race - the girls wore race shirtsand bibs, there was a water station, andfamily, friends, teachers and parish stafflined the course to cheer them on. A feweven ran with them.

“This race wasn’t about winning orplacement, it was about running yourown pace and enjoying the running expe-rience,” Coach Linda Zierolf said.

“We wanted the girls to feel the exhil-aration of crossing that finish line ontheir own terms.”

Fifth grader Jane Walulik summed itup best when she said: “It didn’t matterthat I finished towards the end of thegroup. I feel great!”

The girls, as part of their GOTR learn-ings, wanted to give back to their com-munity, so they used this event to collectcanned goods to donate to the Hunger inOhio project. In total, they collectedabout 40 cans.

She chose swimming prior to herdays at CHCA. Then, she was a volley-ball player as a freshman, but wasn’t en-tirely enamored with it. As part of off-season workouts, student-athletes canparticipate in triathlons, where running

is a significant part of the race. It’s herethat the freshman Haslem found shehad an affinity for it.

“It started with running five minutesat a time, then moved to 5Ks and onfrom there,” Haslem said. “J.P. Pancioli(one of the boys team’s top runners) andI took a liking to it, found out we weren’thalf bad at it and both ended up joiningthe team.”

She fell fast and hard for the sport.In the summer before sophomore

year, she sent an email to coach StephenCarter announcing her intention to join

the program. She and Carter joke abouthow formal that email was now.

Her skills certainly aren’t a laughingmatter though.

“Our boys and girls teams run to-gether during practice and I usually runwith them,” Carter said. “Two runs intopractice, I hear footsteps behind me. Ifigured it was one of the guys, so I ran alittle harder. Still hearing the footsteps,I looked back and there was Rachel. Shecaught up to me and eventually passedme.”

The continued theft of personal infor-mation by identity thieves has led the In-ternal Revenue Service to put in placetougher safeguards for the 2016 tax fil-

ing season.IRS Commissioner

John Koskinen says, “Weneed the public’s help. Weneed people to join with usand take an active role inprotecting their personaland financial data fromthieves.”

The IRS says its clearincreasingly sophisticat-ed identity thieves arebuying and selling exces-

sive amounts of personal financial dataon the black market. They use this datato file fraudulent tax returns using vic-tims’ names and Social Security num-bers.

People like Sandie, of Cincinnati, whowrote me, “Identity issue with IRS hold-ing up 2014 refund payment that could beused toward eye transplant medications.Calls to IRS since May to no avail, justextend refund date with another ex-cuse.”

It took eight months and a lot of workwith the IRS before Sandie finally gother refund. That’s a little longer thanusual because the IRS says the averagewait time to get things cleared up is sixmonths.

Then there’s Douglas, of Cincinnati,who wrote me, “My wife and I are beingthreatened by the IRS. Someone used mySocial Security number in 2013 and owesthe IRS. They filed their return in Marchof 2014 – we filed in April, 2014 and re-

ceived a notice that we had filed twice.”Douglas says matters got a lot worse

recently.“We received a certified mail stating,

‘Notice of intent to seize your state taxrefund or other property’ if we fail topay…We are shocked that the IRS cancontinue to harass us for debt that we’renot responsible for. They’ve never evenshown us the tax return showing that weowe them money for 2013. As a matter offact, our legitimate 2013 tax returnshows that they owe us for that year.”

Iput Douglas in touch with the IRS taxadvocate who was able to sort throughthe fraud. He has now been credited forthe money he paid and received refundchecks for 2013 and 2014.

The IRS its important to protect yourpersonal information by having securitysoftware on your computers and beingaware of phony emails and phone scams.

For the 2016 tax filing season therewill be new standards for logging onto alltax software products including mini-mum password requirements, new secu-rity questions and standard lockout fea-tures.

For the first time, refund fraud vic-tims will be able to request a copy of thefraudulent tax returns filed by crookswho used their stolen identities. The IRSsays there will be partial or full redac-tion of information on those tax returnsto protect additional possible victims.However, it says, there will be enoughdata for consumers to determine howtheir personal information was used.
